Day 14

Day 14,  Sunday 18th January 2009.

I finished sewing the main seams.  Sounded simple but it took about 5 hours.  However the result was fantastic as perhaps you can see in the photos.  Also did another coat of epoxy resin on the coaming pieces so they will be ready for assembly on Tuesday.

Had a request for the recipe for the carrot cake I fed the Jade team on my last day.  I have to find it first but when I do I will post it here... on this blog.  It is a great cake.  :-)


The seam is pinned up and ready for the final sewing.  Not sure of the name of the stitch I will be using but essentially it hides itself leaving (so long as you close your eyes) a nice, neat, single raised material mound down the centre of the kayak.  This shot shows how the fabric folds around the stern area.



All done.  Now just need to add the coaming and sew it in then it will be time to paint it.
